It was a weekend where two high profile Premier League games played out in very different ways.

Musa and Ryan begin with a quick round-up, including Liverpool extending their lead at the top, thanks to their 2-1 win over Everton in the Merseyside derby (03:04). It was chaos at Old Trafford on a rain-soaked Saturday evening (07:44), but Manchester United did enough to get a much needed win against Chelsea. It took them level on points with Manchester City, where control was the name of the game in the 1-1 draw away at Arsenal (15:28), which saw Pep Guardiola record the lowest possession percentage of his managerial career.

There’s also a round-up of the Bundesliga (25:23), La Liga and Atleti’s identity (30:28), Mourinho’s return, including an accidental mini ‘what if’ (36:08) and more!
